January is health month at THE NIBBLE: healthier foods to compensate for that rich eating from Thanksgiving through New Year’s Eve... and to “save up” for Valentine sweets. But there are so many fascinating things to learn (and eat)—like all of the different types of eggs and limes. We love a squeeze of lime over vegetables, in sparkling water and other beverages, and especially over salads (try a dressing made of three parts olive oil and two parts fresh-squeezed lime juice. But just because we’re not focusing on carbs this month doesn’t mean that you have to avoid them. Check out the January Food Holidays list, and you’ll find something to celebrate almost every day. Also check out McCormick’s Flavor Trends For 2009, with gorgeous recipes, in the red box at the left. You and your friends can experience them all, in two fabulous tasting dinners (or one enormous 10-course dinner with cocktails) to celebrate the new year! It is still “healthy” if you have very small portions of everything. The key is to enjoy without excess. If you’ve been caught up in the bottled water controversy, read Water Editor Michael Mascha’s explanation of the two types of bottled water, and why you should consider buying one and not the other. Here’s to a healthy New Year!
